Fully self-contained EC switches that make building a breeze.

Gone are the days of hunting down rubber dome sheets, springs, sliders and stabilisers. No longer will you suffer topre pains where you've misaligned the rubber domes, or clipping your GMK keycaps to fit into stabilisers.

AEBoards have taken what they love from Topre and refined it into a Cherry MX compatible switch, using the 14x14mm footprint, it allows compatibility with MX stabilisers and MX keycaps. The weight of Naevies EC switches is 45g.

These switches are compatible with their Satellite keyboard with an upgrade kit. For other boards, you may need to get a new plate cut to support, or design a PCB to fit.

Compatibility Notes

Domes: these switches are not compatible with Topre or other rubber dome sheets. Naevies use a custom rubber dome that fits into the MX footprint, and is aligned into our switches using corner pillars.

PCBSs: they should work with existing Topre/EC PCBs, but it is not a drop in replacement - you will need to do your own testing, and will need to be able to calibrate your EC PCB.

Plates: Topre plates are unique in that it is usually an injected plastic frame to support the sliders. Naevies use the MX footprint and you are likely to be familiar with this style of plate. Please note that we have specific screw/standoff placement, to ensure a fight and rigid fit that is required for EC PCBs.

Constellation: our current iteration of EC PCB is not compatible with the Constellation keyboard case due to o-ring pillars being in the way, but AEBoards is looking to solve this.
